This volume broadens the critical understanding of Ann Radcliffe's
work and includes explorations of the publication history of her
work, her engagement with contemporary accounts of aesthetics, her
travel writing, and her poetry. Ann Radcliffe (1764-1823) was the
best-selling author of the eighteenth century and her Gothic novels
set the tone for a generation of Gothic writers. Regarded as having
made a pioneering contribution to the Female Gothic of the period
she was also an important critic of the Gothic's different forms.
This collection also includes an analysis of Radcliffe's account of
her medical ailments in her Commonplace Book which provides a new
way of thinking about female bodies in pain and how they are
represented in her novels. The collection provides an important
critical reassessment of a major Gothic writer of the period. It
will be of interest to scholars working on the Gothic,
eighteenth-century literature, and women's writing. This book was
originally published as a special issue of Women's Writing.
